The contents of the template are not whats important in my example. I 
simple made one up to illustrate. In case you are still wondering what 
PR is, its Problem Report (as used by the FreeBSD project). Again, I put 
in an example but the actual contents are not important. The Project 
Leader can Define the template and decide how it is used.
